+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>The output of <tt>--constantshow</tt> (without <tt>--minibar</tt>) is more stable.</li>
+<li>When opening multiple buffers and there is an error message, this<br>
+ message is shown again upon first switch to the relevant buffer.</li>
+<li>The position and size of the indicator now follow actual lines,<br>
+ instead of visual lines when in softwrap mode, meaning that the<br>
+ size of the indicator can change when scrolling in softwrap mode.</li>

+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>Search matches are properly colorized in softwrap mode too.</li>
+<li>Option 'highlightcolor' has been renamed to 'spotlightcolor'.</li>

+2021 February 24 - <b>GNU nano 5.6</b> "Wielewaal"
+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>A search match gets highlighted (in black on yellow by default),<br>
+ in addition to placing the cursor at the start of the match.<br>
+ The color combination can be changed with 'set highlightcolor'.<br>
+ By default the cursor is hidden until the next keystroke, but<br>
+ it can be forced on with <tt>--showcursor</tt> / 'set showcursor'.</li>
+<li>Option <tt>--markmatch</tt> / 'set markmatch' has been removed.</li>
+<li>Cursor position and character code are displayed in the minibar<br>
+ only when option <tt>--constantshow</tt> / 'set constantshow' is used,<br>
+ and their display can be toggled with <tt>M-C</tt>.</li>
+<li>The state flags are displayed in the minibar only when option<br>
+ <tt>--stateflags</tt> / 'set stateflags' is used.</li>

+
+2021 January 14 - <b>GNU nano 5.5</b> "Rebecca"
+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>Option 'set minibar' makes nano suppress the title bar and instead<br>
+ show a bar with basic editing information at the bottom: file name<br>
+ (plus an asterisk when the buffer is modified), the cursor position<br>
+ (line,column), the character under the cursor (U+xxxx), the flags<br>
+ that <tt>--stateflags</tt> normally shows, plus the percentage of the buffer<br>
+ that is above the cursor.</li>
+<li>With 'set promptcolor' the color combination of the prompt bar can<br>
+ be changed, to allow contrasting it with the mini bar (which always<br>
+ has the same color as the title bar).</li>
+<li>Option 'set markmatch' highlights the result of a successful search<br>
+ by putting the mark at the end of the match, making the match more<br>
+ visible. It also suppresses the cursor until the next keystroke.<br>
+ (If you dislike the hiding of the cursor, use 'set showcursor'.)</li>
+<li>The bindable toggle 'nowrap' has been renamed to 'breaklonglines',<br>
+ to match the corresponding option, like for all other toggles.</li>
+<li>Support for Slang has been removed.</li>
+</ul></td></tr></table>

+2020 December 2 - <b>GNU nano 5.4</b> "Terre des hommes"
+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>Moving the cursor now skips over combining characters (and<br>
+ other zero-width characters). Deleting a character deletes<br>
+ also any succeeding zero-width characters, but backspacing<br>
+ deletes just one character at a time.</li>
+</ul></td></tr></table>
+<br><br>
+
+2020 October 7 - <b>GNU nano 5.3</b> "Revolution!"
+<br>
+<table><tr><td><ul>
+<li>Option 'set stateflags' makes nano show the state of auto-indenting,<br>
+ the mark, hard-wrapping, macro recording, and soft-wrapping in the<br>
+ title bar. The flags take the place of "Modified", and a modified<br>
+ buffer is instead indicated by an asterisk (*) after its name.</li>
+<li>Nano no longer by default tries using libmagic to determine the type<br>
+ of a file (when neither filename nor first line gave a clue), because<br>
+ in most cases it is a waste of time. It requires using the option<br>
+ <tt>--magic</tt> or <tt>-!</tt> or 'set magic' to make nano try libmagic.</li>
+<li>The color of the indicator can be changed with 'set scrollercolor'.</li>
+</ul></td></tr></table>
